When I got to the room, I saw the quiet atmosphere around me. Ruhui knew what had happened just now.
Because of laziness and the fact that the Meng family has nothing to think about, Ruhui doesnât let the servant girls around deliberately contact the people around the old lady. So she canât know what happened in the mansion at the first time. Sometimes she needs Chen to tell her.
When entering the room, Ruhui respectfully blessed the old man Meng who was sitting on the couch.
Old man Meng opened his eyes and said, âmy family is in a mess now. Do you know that?â There is no need to beat around the bush about a young generation.
Ruhui nodded her head gently.
âYou canât live without a principal in your family, but your grandmother is old and canât let her keep her age for you.â
Ruhui was not stupid, and asked directly, âmy grandfather wanted me to take over the household affairs?â
Lord Meng nodded his head.
Ruhui did not refuse, but said politely: âthe reason why seven younger brothers and sisters make trouble is that they have no money in business. Grandfather, itâs hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. â The old man asked her to be the steward, which could not be refused. Even if he retired, the old man was still the chief parent of his family. But let her pay for her private house. Donât think about it.
âIâve already transferred 10000 liang of silver to the account, which should be enough for the three monthsâ expenditure in the mansion,â said Meng He didnât say where the money came from.
Hearing that she has money on her account and only needs her housekeeper for three months, Ruhui said: âGrandpa, there are many things going on in this year. I donât know if I can let my five younger brothers and sisters take care of common affairs with me.â The housekeeper is very tired. There are so many beads in Mengâs mansion. More people are right and wrong, more tired.
Old man Meng didnât lift his eyelids: âyou can do these things by yourself!â
After waiting for Ruhui to leave, the old lady asked, âwhy do you say she should be in charge of the house for three months? Since the eldest one doesnât want to be in charge of the household affairs, itâs better to give it directly to his daughter-in-law
Old lord Meng looked at the old lady and said, âof all the granddaughters in law, the shrewd one is RAHIâs daughter-in-law. Do you think she will be willing to keep her in charge of the affairs of the government? â Want to know, itâs impossible. If you dare to force her, Iâm afraid that she will take her children back to her motherâs house.
Ningâs family is like the sun, while Mengâs family is on the decline. Ningshi really took the children back, and then he had to apologize to RAHI to get them back.
The old man said, âwhat about three months later?â
The old man said, âthree months later, let them run their own houses.â
âYou want to separate?â the old lady asked
When I saw the old man, I ordered the old man and said: âno, we canât separate. Once separated, the family will be broken up. â
If you can, the old man doesnât want to separate his family. However, at this stage, they can only be separated: âthe eldest two want to separate. If they donât follow their mind, they donât know what will happen. If they want to divide the big branches of the tree, let them do so! â He retired to enjoy his old age, but he was not bothered by such trifles all day long. Therefore, separation is the best choice.
Speaking of this, the old lady also knew that it was imperative to separate the family. However, she was still sad to fall into tears: âif we split up, it will be difficult to have a meal together.â
âItâs easy to do. They are not allowed to move after the separation. We canât move out until we die. â When I first followed him into the capital, I considered that there were many grandchildren. So the old man bought a big five in house. Therefore, even though the Meng family has a large population, it can still live today.
The old lady hesitated, âIâm afraid they wonât like it.â
âIf you donât agree, I wonât give him a cent.â Even if you donât agree to such a request, donât forget such an unfilial son and son.
The old lady nodded.
When Chen heard that the old man had paid 10000 liang of silver to his account, he said, âit seems that the private house between the old man and the old lady is still very thick.â
Ruhui smiled and said, âwho is the old man? He doesnât know what he did with his aunt. â If not all, most of them know.
Knowing the nature of the husband and wife of Lord Meng, the old man naturally needs to pay attention to them. Otherwise, how to enjoy old age.
If Hui let Chen take charge of the sewing room and the tea room, she would take care of the rest.
Itâs different from the old rule that the housekeeper of the fourth grandma Meng tied his hands and feet. Ruhui reestablished the rules as soon as he came up. Thatâs ten days to one account, unlike the previous month to one account.
Ten days later, Ruhui called mother Cui, who was in charge of purchasing in the kitchen. After that, everyone in the house knew that ruhuige had worked for Cuiâs mother, and then changed to his companion room to take charge of the kitchen affairs.
When Chen knew it, he said with some concern, 'sister-in-law three, how can mother Cui be the confidant of the eldest aunt. If you change people like this, the eldest aunt will be very angry. â
âAngry? If you donât say five Wen for an egg, youâll buy twenty Jin. But there are five people in our family. We havenât even seen the eggshell. If I donât change her, I canât survive the last ten thousand liang of silver. â The price of eggs in winter is less than usual. But no matter how expensive it is, it has not increased ten times.
She is not a lady who does not touch Yangshui. On the contrary, she knows the price very well.
If Hui was also a steward when he was in Anyang, he knew that there was no fish when the water was clear. But Anyang Houfu is also in charge of purchasing. Only when they buy things, they will bargain with the seller and then pay the market price. And the difference between them came into their pockets. In this regard, Ruhui also turned a blind eye. But this mother Cui has a big appetite.
Chen said, âIâm afraid the eldest aunt will not give up.â
Hum, such as Hui said: âbefore I donât care about her, is to think that she is our elder.â. But if she dares to trouble me, I am not afraid of her. â Since she knew that Mrs. Meng had concealed the money returned by Meng Guangpeng, she had no respect for Mrs. Meng.

âGranny, the fourth granny is here,â the wheat ear said After free Huizhangâs family, the wheat ear also rises with the tide. However, as Ruhuiâs confidant, she also knows that the Meng family will soon separate. So, her attitude to the public is the same. In this way, it is more respected.
When fourth grandma Meng came in, she saw two people and said, âwhen I was in charge, I was tired and half dead all day. But unexpectedly, sister-in-law and sister-in-law are so leisurely. â Her housekeeper was not so tired as to die, but was in a state of anxiety.
Ruhui said with a smile, âhow can four younger brothers and sisters come to me when they are so busy?â
Grandma Meng said with a wry smile, âIâll invite you if my mother-in-law wants to see you.â
Want to know, it must be about mother Cui. In fact, she doesnât like Cuiâs mother, but thatâs one of Mrs. Mengâs confidants. No matter how annoying it is, I dare not show it. Seeing that Ruhui has changed her job, grandma Meng is very happy.
Ruhui smiles. She wants to help Cuiâs mother. But sheâs not afraid.
At the door, fourth grandma Meng did not follow in but stood at the door and waited. Soon she heard Ruhui shouting at the doctor and ran in.
Seeing Mrs. Meng lying unconscious in bed, Mrs. Meng was in a hurry: 'sister-in-law, what happened to my mother-in-law?â
âThe eldest aunt heard that mother Cui was greedy for several thousand liang of silver, and she fainted in a rage.â âFinish saying, if Hui is very chagrin ground says:â knew early, I donât say this with big aunt
âHow many thousand liang of silver did you say Cuiâs mother coveted?â said Meng Siâs grandmother with a look of horror Her dowry is only four thousand Liang silver.
Ruhui said with a voice, âmother Cui has doubled or even multiplied the price of the things she buys. After more than ten years, it is estimated that there will be several thousand liang of silver.â
âAs far as I know, her little son has not only a house, but also a small shop and 60 mu of land.â Slaves canât have private property. But Cui motherâs youngest son got grace when he was six years old and released from slavery. Since he is a good citizen, he can also have his own property.
âThis dog slave, itâs time for a thousand cuts,â said Mrs. Meng, gnashing her teeth She knew that Cuiâs mother had made a profit when she bought it, but she didnât expect to be so greedy.
Ruhui smiled and said, 'she is the eldest auntâs companion. How to deal with it is up to the eldest aunt.â She only needs to let people in Mengâs mansion know that mother Cui is greedy for a lot of money. As for greedy money and how to deal with mother Cui, she doesnât want to worry.
Before the doctor came, Madame Meng woke up quietly. At the sight of Ruhui, doctor Meng said, âWhy are you still here?â
âSince the eldest aunt doesnât want to see me, Iâll go back first.â And when he had finished speaking, Ruhui went on his way.
In the evening, mizuhi and Ruhui said, âgrandma, the eldest lady sent someone to check Cuiâs house. It is said that more than three hundred taels of silver have been copied out. â
âHow does the eldest aunt deal with Mrs. Cui?â
Maisui shook his head and said, âMrs. Cuiâs family has been sold and sold separately.â Apart from her youngest son, Cuiâs husband, son and daughter are all on duty in Mengâs mansion. This sale, the family has no possibility of reunion.
Ruhui smiles.
As soon as Cuiâs mother happened, all the other officials in the house turned into quail. They were not honest. No one in the mansion dares to cheat again. The atmosphere of Mengâs residence is much better.
On this day, mengrahi and Ruhui said, âtoday, my grandmother told me that she hoped that you would always be in charge of the household affairs, but I refused. I told my grandmother that when the eldest aunt is well, you will return the stewardship to the eldest aunt. â If the housekeeper is tired, he has to complain about the big house. Why bother.
Ruhui said with a smile: âeven if the eldest aunt is well, her grandfather will not let her manage the house before the separation. But itâs OK. Itâs only been two months since I was tired. â
âHuiâer, looking at Grandma means that we canât move out, even if itâs separation.â In fact, mengrahi also wanted to move out to establish his own door, which was even more unique. But if the old man and the old lady donât agree with their move, he can only compromise. He has two old people on whom he relies today.
Ruhui said with a smile: âthese things, we will talk about them after we divide the family.â
